Lake 2 Wick Water Freezes Over
After similar reports from around the country, work carries on removing dead fish from our club lake 2 after plummeting temperatures froze the lake over just after Christmas. Other lakes also froze but not completely so did not suffer the same fate. Lake 2 as most club members will know is well stocked with fish, so in time will re generate with the strongest fish surviving of course. Most fish lost have been Mirror Carp and have been destroyed by burning for health and safety reasons. The environment agency were informed and confirmed this was by no means an isolated case. The lake is now being oxygenated through the day to help restore conditions and when I left today some roach were seen thrashing about, so early signs are looking good.
